Millipedes are nature's little recyclers. They are detritivores, meaning they feed on dead plants and animals. The millipedes' snacking recycles nutrients back into the soil at a much faster rate than plants and animals decomposing naturally. Ranging in size from one-quarter to even 15 inches long, millipedes play a large role in breaking down nature's waste.
